My first ever case mods:

120mm Case fan...pretty much just cut a bigger hole at the back and squeezed it in:

Side fans hitting the G-Card and CPU Cooler (to be meshed):

Roof fan:

Home-made fan housing that takes up 3 CD drives made from sheet ally, 120mm fan and meshed:

Cheapo fan controller with a switch fitted so I can turn off all 'extra' fans when just surfing the net (leaving CPU and G-Card fans on):

Yeah OK maybe I went a little overboard on the fans (there's another 120mm fan sucking air in from the front bottom!) but it was fun, and it keeps my X2 5000+ overclocked to 3.2Ghz at around 35 Degrees, and my 9600GT at 33 Degrees whilst overclocked to the max.

Now...what to do with that other switch I've fitted...? Any ideas?

the other switch? make it control an extreme amount of blue led case lighting? to match the fan controller :) like buy a bunch of leds and fill the case with them :)
